Outback Country Art Prize

Outback Arts are pleased to announce that we will be accepting entries for the Outback Country Art Prize from 13th July.

We also have new categories: Legends, Landscapes & Lifelines, for all mediums (excluding video and audio works).

Established in 2011, the Outback Country Art Prize (previously known as Outback Archies) provides rural and remote artists with the opportunity to exhibit their work and supportive access to important professional development. Through long term partnerships, this project not only offers cash prizes but also exhibition opportunities with metro gallery partners.

Now in its 15th year, this project has grown into an event that it trusted and much anticipated by local artists and the regional community.
